Top SchoolAdam Mclean is a Principal Consultant with nine years focused on helping enterprises and public sector organizations adopt cloud-native architectures, currently specializing at AWS in EKS/Kubernetes, CDK automation, and TypeScript-driven infrastructure. He brings deep systems engineering roots—from large-scale monitoring and automation at RBC to platform and pre-sales roles at Red Hat—blending hands-on prototyping (voice, IoT, VR) with pragmatic infrastructure-as-code design. Known for running workshops, hackathons, and speaking engagements, he actively promotes a return to builder culture while demonstrating clear business value from emerging tech like serverless, containers, and ML. Based in Raleigh, he combines enterprise-grade security and compliance experience with a tinkerer’s instinct for rapid prototypes and developer productivity improvements.
